That is way too apologetic and contrite of a sentence to say in a French accent. Just can't be done.

Sure it can, but it's dripping with a very clear tone implying you're being a nuisance and to kindly GTFO.

That's what I'm saying though that's not French. French isn't veiled contempt. French is open contempt.

Yeah but it could be those words, just the meme makes it sound nice with the cute cat, when you have to imagine it said with utter disgust that you even dare to be standing there in front of him. But it could be those words to maintain plausible deniability with the boss.
